00:00:03.045 --> 00:00:04.170 align:middle line:90%
I think I'll read this one.

00:00:04.170 --> 00:00:05.370 align:middle line:84%
We talked about this
one this morning

00:00:05.370 --> 00:00:06.720 align:middle line:90%
with some of the students.

00:00:06.720 --> 00:00:12.240 align:middle line:90%
And it-- the title is Latin.

00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:15.810 align:middle line:84%
It comes from the expression
Deus ex machina which

00:00:15.810 --> 00:00:17.280 align:middle line:90%
means god from the machine.

00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:19.500 align:middle line:84%
But in this case,
Deus is missing.

00:00:19.500 --> 00:00:23.670 align:middle line:90%
It's just ex machina.

00:00:23.670 --> 00:00:28.380 align:middle line:84%
Every year is the year the
world ends as I understand it.

00:00:28.380 --> 00:00:33.060 align:middle line:84%
X is to blame, or aerosol, or
the barbarity of X, in which we

00:00:33.060 --> 00:00:35.280 align:middle line:90%
all partake as is our way.

00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:37.920 align:middle line:84%
We have come too
far to turn away

00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:40.950 align:middle line:84%
from this kernel that
shapes us into other,

00:00:40.950 --> 00:00:45.630 align:middle line:84%
then animal, or just animal
enough to breed and break.

00:00:45.630 --> 00:00:46.990 align:middle line:90%
It is a science.

00:00:46.990 --> 00:00:50.910 align:middle line:84%
The study of what it is in
this mind and muscle that

00:00:50.910 --> 00:00:53.580 align:middle line:84%
makes us sway the
weight of us toward

00:00:53.580 --> 00:00:58.680 align:middle line:84%
give or take in the bare face
of each open mouthed need.

00:00:58.680 --> 00:01:01.350 align:middle line:84%
And what is our
mistake, this clamor

00:01:01.350 --> 00:01:04.500 align:middle line:84%
that trails us, that
shakes us to sleep?

00:01:04.500 --> 00:01:06.390 align:middle line:90%
What we are capable of.

00:01:06.390 --> 00:01:08.280 align:middle line:90%
What great hope.

00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:11.030 align:middle line:90%
What will become of me?
